Given that the "Ashcroft" in the firm is John Ashcroft, former attorney general, and the Sullivan who actually represented CTIX is also a heavy hitter with much government experience (and connections), the chance that they would have taken this case without expecting a big pay-off is approximately equal to zero.
So, somewhat north of 1.70 in the near or mid-term seems very, very likely. These types of people are not likely to take these basher attacks lying down. All I can say is: if I were a basher, or involved with the Mako/Rosen/other entities attack, I would not be able to sleep at night, wondering what kind of behind-the-scenes maneuvering is going on with government entities right now.
